Freesat: Internet Connection Speed Recommendations

We want you to have seamless experience enjoying TVPlayer, so here are our internet download speed recommendations for playing TV programmes on TVPlayer.

3.0 Megabits per second - Recommended for SD quality

5.0 Megabits per second - Recommended for HD quality

Watching programmes in HD

You can see which channels we stream in HD here but these channels will only play as long as you have a connection speed of 5.0 megabits per second or faster.

Higher quality video uses more bandwidth than lower quality video. If your service provider applies a bandwidth or data cap to your internet service, you can manage bandwidth settings by changing the video quality settings to Low or Medium to consume less data.
